Not fat, husky.

Some Montreal radio guy;

I'm working as a teacher at a school for adults with learning disabilities, and there is a student there who is a huge Habs fan.  He wears some kind of Canadiens gear to school every single day. The poor guy was literally in tears today, it was the first time I felt bad for a Habs fan.  It...

Eww, the knee looked ugly...

Don't get too stressed out about this award guys.  Thanks to Matt Cooke, the Norris this year will be awarded to the league's 2nd best defenseman.

I38dKQlTP1E This happened last season, and earned Rene Bourque a 5 game suspension.  Very similar to what he did to Conacher, but at least Backstrom had the puck just before got the elbow to his face.

Trying to say that I think Bourque's hit was something outside the scope of a 2 minute elbowing call. Like Marty McSorely on Brashear was more than a highsticking penalty (not comparing these in severity). But again, I don't know the rule by the letter, so I could be wrong.

I think the 2 minute minor is more for bodychecks where a player gets his arms up. That wasn't anything approaching a hockey play, that was pure elbow to the head with malicious intent. Course, I haven't reviewed the Rulebook, so I could be wrong.

I thought it all fell under the heading of playoff hockey, other than Bourque's elbow to Conacher. I'm really stunned and a little upset with Shanahan/the NHL about that.  It ticked nearly every box for a lengthy suspension. - elbow - headshot - away from the play - blindside - defenseless...

Thanks for killing my pool, Canucks. The one time I need you to win.

No supplementary discipline. Grubs gets 2 games for a clean hit. Bourque gets nothing.  Clear elbow to the head of a defenceless and unsuspecting oppenent. 2 suspensions in the past 18 months, and a history of both elbows and headshots. So we're solely suspending players based on injury now...

Before you guys get started on this, I haven't seen a single Sens fan complain about him shooting the puck at Turris,

You may enjoy the hfboards thread on this game. It seems like fans of all the other 29 teams have formed a temporary alliance in order to crap on the Canadiens.

Ha, MacLean calls a timeout to go over the PP with 17 seconds left, while up 6-1. Moustache loves that kind of nonsensical gamesmanship.

God I wish.  I haven't seen the Sens win in person in years. Pageau has become a hero tonight.  Scored a hattie, and had thousands of people chanting his name to the tune of "Ole".  Couple months ago he was a bottom six roleplayer in the AHL.

Oof.  Ugly one.

The Sens have to stop playing like crap at some point, right?

Aww, Kassian in for Conacher. We're wasting a spot on a useless goon because we're afraid of who? Prust? Moen?
